WOME Training — What ISC Delivers

ISC Defence Intelligence delivers practitioner-led WOME (Weapons, Ordnance, Munitions and Explosives) training that closes the competence gap NATO quality assurance frameworks demand but do not define. ISO 9001 Clause 7.2 and the full AQAP publication suite require demonstrated competence for personnel handling, inspecting, or procuring WOME — neither framework specifies what that competence looks like in practice. ISC training maps directly to STANAG 4107, AQAP-2110, DSA OME regulations, and the AASTP series, equipping procurement staff, quality assurance representatives, and programme managers with the technical grounding to meet regulatory requirements and perform effectively in WOME supply chains. Courses are designed for defence industry QA personnel, government GQAR nominees, and procurement officers working on NATO ammunition programmes.

Training Philosophy

Addresses the Gap Standards Require

ISO 9001 Clause 7.2 demands competence. The AQAP suite demands competence. Neither defines what that means for WOME. ISC training closes the gap between standards and practice.

01

Standards-Grounded

Every module maps to ISO 9001, AQAP publications, DSA OME, AASTP series, and NATO frameworks. Compliance is built in, not added later.

02

Competence-Focused

We measure success by what participants can do after training, not what they remember. Assessment includes practical application and auditable evidence trails.

03

Evidence-Based

Training records satisfy regulatory audits, inspections, and competence challenges. Documentation supports ISO 9001 Clause 7.2, AQAP compliance, and professional CPD requirements.
